Tom: G
G C G
I can't let my baby be
C
Tried to turn him to a shape
D G
That would fit well with me
Am
Now my baby's all alone
Em
Ever since I up and gone
G C G
I can't let my baby be
[Verse 2]
G C G
I can't let my baby sleep
C
I wake him in the wee small hours
D G
Of the morning breeze
Am
Or I'd choke up on the tears
Em
Like a faucet without gears
G C G
I can't let my baby sleep
[Chorus 1]
C Am
How do you leave behind
G
A love that hasn't died?
C Am
He says to me and frowns
Em D
And I can't let my baby down
Am D
I can't let my baby down
G
Easy
[Verse 3]
G C G
I can't let my baby drown
C
If he sinks below the line of sight
D G
I best be bound
Am
To a life in debt
Em
To sadness and regret
G C G
I can't let my baby drown
[Chorus 2]
C Am
How do you leave behind
G
A love that hasn't died?
C Am
He says to me and frowns
Em D
And I can't let my baby down
Am D
I can't let my baby down
G
Easy
[Bridge]
C Am
Where do I go
C
If I got no road ahead?
G
Where do I hide
C G
If I can't find nothing to stand behind?
C G
'Cause I can't find nothing to stand behind
[Outro]
G C G
I can't let my baby leave
C
If he's gone I won't go on
D G
Knowing how to believe
Am
That love's some kind of dancer
Em
If you call it, it'll answer
G C G
I can't let my baby leave
